If all students could be trusted, using a wiki in class would be a great way to talk to each other. However, not everyone is nice and positive. Wiki's could cause cyber-bullying in the school/classroom. It's also great because students that may not speak up in class may speak up on the wiki! What do you think?
I have not had the opportunity to do the wiki assignment yet, but I've heard lots of good things about it. I look forward to learning how it works.
ReplyDeleteThis would definitely be great in a university classroom. Unfortunately, I have yet to meet a group of high school students whose abuse of something like this would not outweigh any positive effects.
ReplyDeleteIt might work to set up a system where the teacher can approve entries before they are posted.
hmmm...never heard of it.....I have only used blackboard.....sorry!
